Perplexity

Validate user inputs inside Cursor

The `validate_email` tool gives your Cursor agent the ability to write and test validation logic using real-time SMTP checks. Your agent inspects deliverability scores to build smarter signup forms without relying on dummy test data. You can also use `validate_phone` and `validate_vat` to write clean checkout code. Cursor tests your helper functions against actual carrier databases and EU VAT registries while you watch the code generate.

Write location-aware code with this MCP Server

This MCP Server lets your Cursor agent run `geolocate_ip` to write IP routing rules that actually work. Your agent queries live ISP and country data to write conditional logic for your backend. Combine this with `get_timezone` to build timezone-shifting functions inside your editor. Cursor writes the code and checks it against active regional offsets to ensure your scheduling logic is bulletproof.

Render screenshots and avatars in Cursor

The `website_screenshot` tool lets Cursor fetch clean, headless browser renders of your staging environments. Your agent uses these URLs to verify layout changes or document visual updates directly in your workspace. If you are building user profiles, `generate_avatar` creates clean placeholder images based on user initials. Cursor drops these direct URLs into your mock databases or frontend components instantly.

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".

Common questions about AbstractAPI MCP in Cursor

Create an `.cursor/mcp.json` file in your project root and define the AbstractAPI server. Once saved, Cursor detects the new tools, allowing your agent to run validations and lookups during chat sessions.

Yes, Cursor runs these tools autonomously when you use Agent mode. The agent decides when to call `enrich_company` or `validate_email` based on the coding task you assign.

The MCP Server exposes the `exchange_rate` tool directly to your Cursor agent. Your agent can pull live currency pairings to populate mock invoices or test your pricing calculator code.

Cursor inherits the tool list exposed by the server configuration. If you only want your agent to use specific tools like `validate_vat`, you can configure those limits in your Vinkius dashboard.

Every VAT number and domain query sent from Cursor is encrypted in transit via SSL. Vinkius processes these requests in ephemeral, zero-trust containers, ensuring your company data is never cached or exposed.
